MTL - Is the Wife Married?-Chapter 21 (1)

Gu Chixi stared at Wen Ning, her soft eyebrows tinged with joy.

The expected result, she just didn't expect Wen Ning to talk to her face to face. She thought that according to Wen Ning's temperament, she would be awkward and arrogant, and she was even ready to ask.

A smile slowly bloomed on his lips, and before he had time to expand, he froze because of what Wen Ning said next.

"But you promise me three conditions first." Wen Ning glanced at the document with a low eye, and reached out to hold it lightly.

Gu Chixi said softly, "You say it."

"First, after getting the certificate, each has his own way, and each other must not interfere with each other's private life. Second, the relationship should be kept secret, and no one should know about it, except your mother, but you must ensure that she will not spread it. Third, respect each other. You can't force me to do what I don't want."

Wen Ning stared straight at Gu Chixi, raised her right hand, raised a finger every time she said a condition, her tone was firm, and her long and narrow peach blossom eyes flickered.

Gu Chixi only felt that something stabbed in his heart, and raised his eyebrows lightly, "What if... I don't agree?"

The place where she was stabbed felt faintly painful, and a feeling of sourness and numbness spread in her heart, she seemed to be abandoned high and fell heavily. The moment she fell, the taste of weightlessness made her panic.

Wen Ning was stunned, slightly surprised. She moved her fingertips while pressing the document. After a while, she picked it up and wanted to stuff it into her bag.

"and many more-"

Gu Chixi stood up abruptly, walked around the desk, and grabbed her hand along with the certificate, "I promise you."

She lowered her eyes and pressed her thumb against Wen Ning's hand.

The slender eyelashes are like moth wings, lightly covering the emotions in his eyes, and then he lifts it up, full of forbearance and restraint, and his hands become more and more forceful.

Wen Ning pursed her lips and suddenly couldn't bear it.

She can get a certificate from Gu Chixi, and she can accept formal marriage, but she can't accept Gu Chixi. Between them, if they missed it, they missed it. The scars left by the gap of time cannot be erased. They can only try not to touch, but it will always be there.

Even if she is easily soft-hearted, with these three conditions as the premise, she will not have any feelings for her.

A year later, debt-free and relentless.

Wen Ning plate is very good.

"I also have conditions." Gu Chixi's voice pulled her back from her thoughts.

She raised her eyebrows: "What?"

Gu Chixi's eyes were deep, "We must live together."

"…"

"Wouldn't it be discovered by others?" Wen Ning said anxiously, and subconsciously pulled out her hand, clenching her documents tightly.

Once colleagues find out about their relationship, although it will not have any substantial impact, it will be terrifying, and there will be gossip about them in the company in the future. No matter what she does, she must be tied to Gu Chixi.

Just imagining it makes me suffocate.

As soon as these words fell, the air quickly became cold.

Gu Chixi looked at her empty hand, moved her fingertips, curled up, and said in a low voice, "No." She grabbed Wen Ning's hand and documents back, "When there is a task, especially the morning shift and the red eye. Ban, you will stay in a hotel with me, which is close to the company and convenient. We will stay at your house when we are resting."

"Don't worry, I have packed a whole floor of the hotel, and you can choose the suite bedroom. I won't go to Tianhe Bay very often. I will tell you before I go."

The more she spoke, the lower her voice was, with a hint of compromise.

Wen Ning softened again.

This person has always been strong, and he lowered his posture a little, and he has a pitiful temperament everywhere. Especially when she thinks that all tenderness and fragility can only be seen by herself, and she can't stop the numbness in her heart, and she can't bear it at all.

On the one hand, I think it is pretending to be affectionate, and on the other hand, I eat this set very much. Wen Ning fell into self-confusion.

"...Okay." She reluctantly replied, bowing her head.

Only then did Gu Chixi's tense nerves relax. Seeing that her eyes were a little red, her heart rose again, and she thought for a while, "Ling Ning, do you feel wronged?"

"No." Wen Ning shook her head quickly.

Gu Chixi thought about it: "If you really don't want to..."

"willing."

Wen Ning interrupted her, smiled, and narrowed her long and narrow peach eyes, "Since you want to cooperate, you have to show sincerity. You can agree to my conditions, and I can agree to yours."

At this point, there are only pure interests left between them, and she should not mix past feelings into it. Instead of going around in circles, it is better to figure it out from the beginning and make up your mind.

When the debt is paid off, she will be a free bird, the sky is so big and wide, she will love whoever she wants, and then she will walk out of Gu Chixi's shadow completely.

Gu Chixi stared at her intently, a soft light flickering in his jet-black pupils.

"Did you bring your documents?" Wen Ning avoided that gaze and looked around.

"Tomorrow," Gu Chixi curled the corners of her mouth and raised her hand to tick her ear, "I have something to do with me today. When I pick you up tomorrow morning, remember to wear white clothes."

The strands of hair were tucked behind her ears, and she moved gently and carefully, like loving a docile and well-behaved kitten.

Wen Ning hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded and said, "Then I'll go back first."

"and many more."

"?"

Gu Chixi turned around and walked to the other side of the table, took out a piece of paper from his bag, went back to Wen Ning, grabbed her hand and put it in, "I'll keep my promise first."

It was a check with "30 million yuan" written in big letters.

There are two red stamps at the bottom.

Wen Ning was taken aback, "You know I will agree?"

So you already have your check ready?

"No," Gu Chixi shook his head, "I just prepared early."

"…"

Wen Ning stared at the string of zeros behind the capital letters, smacking and touching it repeatedly, feeling inexplicably heavy.

It doesn't seem to suffer.

30 million to buy her a year in the form, after all, it is still too expensive, she feels that she is not worth the price. In fact, even without this so-called "thank you", she would still help Gu Chixi with this favor, but she seemed passive when she took the "gift".

But the money had been sent to her, and she couldn't resist the temptation.

"Ning Ning?" Gu Chixi called her softly.

Wen Ning raised his eyes, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Aren't you afraid I'll take the money and run away?"

Thinking that Ning Ning had seen through the "lie", Gu Chixi was stubborn, thinking about how to round it or explain it, but did not expect a false alarm. She pursed her lips and smiled, her voice soft: "Then I will chase you to the ends of the earth."

Wen Ning turned her face away, avoiding Gu Chixi's too direct and fiery gaze.

"It's okay, I'll go first..."

She fled.

A gust of wind passed by, and the door of the office opened and closed. Gu Chixi stood there, smelling the fragrance left in the air, and it took a long time to recover.

In hindsight, complex tastes overwhelmed her.

Although it was expected, Wen Ningti's condition caught her off guard.

The day before yesterday, she was still annoyed, whether she would be too reckless, should not mention the money directly, but get the certificate first, and wait until a few days to pay off the debt. But the follow-up operability of doing so cannot be predicted. She has no confidence that she will be able to resolve the old affairs within a year, and she has no confidence that Wen Ning will put down her grievances and forgive her within a year.

At that time, what reason will she use to persuade Wen Ning to accept her to pay her debts?

Playing the old love card directly will bring back unpleasant memories of the past, and it is like adding salt to the wound. It's better to be straightforward and say it clearly from the beginning.

This is equivalent to the cooperation of selling her body, which may make Ning Ning feel uncomfortable, but the pain will always pass.

Without debt, Wen Ning can fly freely and live easily.

Even if the price paid is that the relationship between the two is completely reduced to an exchange of interests.

Thinking of this, Gu Chixi closed his eyes, sighed, walked around the office and sat back on the leather chair, rubbing his forehead with his index finger.

She doesn't want it either...

But that day was too anxious, too urgent, and everything was messed up when I encountered something related to Ning Ning.

Fortunately, she won the bet.

The sun was hot outside, there was no wind, and the air was hot.

Wen Ning walked out of the building as if escaping, ran into someone head-on, and almost bumped into it. She paused, and the other person stopped as well. The eyes of the two met, and they were both stunned.

It's Wan Siqi.

Thinking of the unpleasantness some time ago, Wen Ningli ignored her, turned her face away, and raised her legs to leave.

"Captain Wen!" Wan Siqi took her arm, "Wait a minute..."

Wen Ning frowned and said coldly, "Is something wrong?"

"I—" Wan Siqi hesitated, turned around and looked around for a while, "Come out."

She took Wen Ning to hide under the shade of the tree next to her, and looked left and right to make sure that there was no one around, so she released her hand, looked at Wen Ning with a little embarrassment, and said, "Captain Wen, I want to talk to you. An apology, that is... the last time... I misunderstood you, I'm sorry."

Wen Ning was surprised, her face softened a little, "Who did you find out who reported the report?"

"Um."

Wan Siqi nodded, gritted her teeth and said, "It's my roommate."

Many of the flight attendants are out-of-towners. They rent an apartment near the company. If they know each other well, they will make an appointment to share the rent. First, colleagues are safer and more secure. Second, they have common topics with each other, so they will not feel lonely.

However, who would have thought that the person with the best relationship in the past would stab in the back.

Wen Ning suddenly remembered what Gu Chixi said last time, faintly felt that there might be a connection, and asked tentatively, "How did you find it?"

"It's a bit strange to say..." Wan Siqi murmured, "I received a text message from an unfamiliar number at the beginning of this month, telling me to be careful about my roommate harming me. No."

Wen Ning: "…"

"It really surprised me. It was inexplicable. I thought I had encountered a ghost. Then I paid attention to my roommate during that time, and there was nothing wrong with it. I thought it must be a prank."

After that, about last Tuesday, Wan Siqi temporarily changed shifts with someone and went to the hospital. When she came back, she heard her roommate chatting with someone on the balcony, talking about reporting her, and laughed very loudly.

She still remembers her roommate looking at her in panic and asking very bluntly: Don't you have a flight today?

Then the two tore their faces and broke apart.

Just because the roommate failed the first class exam, and Wan Siqi just passed this year, the hourly fee is 11 yuan more than her.

After reporting the incident, Wan Siqi was returned to the normal cabin again.

While she was furious, she regretted her recklessness, wronged Wen Ning, and indiscriminately shook the matter of Wen Ning covering her up to the leader, causing the other party to be suspended for half a month and losing money in vain.

Although flight and flight attendant are two departments, there is a lot of overlap in work, and it is not good to form a relationship with people for no reason.

Wan Siqi explained what happened, looked at Wen Ning aggrievedly, and bowed to her with folded hands: "Captain Wen, I'm really sorry..."

Wen Ning was distracted.

The incident happened at the end of last month. Gu Chixi came to her and promised her that she would not care about it. Later, at the beginning of the month, Wan Siqi received a mysterious text message, and then she arrested her roommate. A series of causes and consequences, it is difficult for her to imagine that it has nothing to do with that person.

Will the text message be sent by Gu Chixi?

Except for the department leader and Gu Chixi, no one knows who the real whistleblower is. The former is not related to her, so obviously it is impossible to meddle in her own business. After thinking about it, only Gu Chixi can do this.

"Captain Wen?" Wan Siqi called to her, "it's my fault, if I don't figure it out..."

Wen Ning suddenly came back to her senses, waved her hand, and said, "Forget it, it's all over."

"Can I ask you to eat and apologize?"

"Need not."

"That-"

What else did the girl want to say, Wen Ning didn't want to entangle any more, and excused: "I have an appointment with a friend, I'm in a hurry, that's it." She turned and walked to the parking lot.

It took so long for the whole thing to gossip after a few days, and the money that Wen Ning lost was made up by Gu Chixi in another way, which didn't affect her too much. Instead, she discovered something more subtle - Gu Chixi was always helping her intentionally or not.

First it was a mysterious text message, and then it was a chartered car for 20,000 yuan, which was done with caution and restraint.

Wen Ning sat in the car, turned on the air conditioner, took out the check, and looked at it several times under the cold lights of the parking lot, feeling mixed for a while.

These days, she said that she didn't care about Gu Chixi's departure back then, but she still had an obsession in her heart. The person's light-hearted explanation of "reading" was not enough, and she didn't believe it.

She couldn't take the initiative to ask, it seemed like she cared.

Now, the two have completely turned into a partnership of interests.

That's fine, it gave her a reason to completely cut off her thoughts. She didn't have to be attached to the past and explained. If she hypnotized herself for such a long time, maybe she could really come out of her heart.

The next day, Wen Ning got up early, washed and cleaned up, put on a white shirt, casually matched a pair of hot pants, and sat in front of the dresser.

In the mirror, her face was very thin, her jawline was distinct, and her deep and seductive eyes were like roses with dew.

She put on plain makeup for herself, light brown eyebrows, thin brown inner eyeliner, and peach lip glaze that was almost transparent.

During breakfast, Wen Ning called her aunt and told her to call the money in two days.

When my aunt heard that it was 500,000 yuan, she refused to accept it. She only borrowed 100,000 yuan. Wen Ning said something, even coaxing and deceiving.

Different from the past, this time is not a temporary stability, but the dust has settled, and the feeling of finally being able to lie down and rest, from the body to the heart is relaxed. A breakfast is more comfortable and easy to eat than any other day in years.

At nine o'clock, Wen Ning received a call from Gu Chixi.

"Ling Ning, I'm at the door."

The man's voice was as gentle as always, always as if he was afraid of arguing with her. Wen Ning listened, and she couldn't help but feel nervous, "Okay."

She hung up the phone, carried her bag and went to put on shoes. The moment she opened the door, she looked back at the house. Today, she was single when she left the house, and when she came back, she was a wife. She felt a little emotional and reluctant.

Out the gate, across the yard, a blue sedan parked outside.

The door in the back of the car opened, and Gu Chixi came down. She was also wearing a white shirt with a normal style, her long black straight hair was draped behind her shoulders, she had light makeup on her face, and her lips were slightly more rosy than Wen Ning's. Wen Ning's figure was reflected in the quiet black eyes, and there was a trace of waves.

"Lime-"

She bent her lips and stepped forward.

Wen Ning's eyes fell on the car, looked at it, and asked doubtfully, "Did you change the car?"

"Well," Gu Chixi took her hand, "Listen to you, arrange the face."

"…"

Wen Ning had long forgotten what she had said in Java. Now that she was reminded, she felt embarrassed. She pursed her lips, pulled out her hand, and opened the passenger door without saying a word.

"Let's sit in the back." Gu Chixi took her arm.

"Oh."

The interior of the car is fresh and elegant off-white. There is a pair of bear dolls holding hands between the two seats in the back row. Wen Ning glanced at the doll more than once. When Gu Chixi came up, she immediately looked away and lowered her head to play. cell phone.

"Xiao Fan, go to the Civil Affairs Bureau." Gu Chixi said to the driver.

"OK."

After leaving Tianhe Bay, there were more and more cars on the road.

Wen Ning swiped Weibo for a while, but didn't see any new topics. She put down her phone and raised her eyes. Out of the corner of the eye, she noticed that Gu Chixi was looking at her, her neck stiffened, she pretended to turn to the other side naturally, and looked at the scenery outside the window. .

The car was silent, the air-conditioning was running at full capacity, but the temperature seemed to have risen invisibly. She raised her hand and brushed her hair, her fingertips brushed against her face, feeling a little hot.

After a long time, the eyes around him turned back.

Wen Ning let out a sigh of relief.

"Have you brought all your documents?" Gu Chixi asked suddenly, his eyes swept over again.

Wen Ning just nodded and didn't look at her.

The two who knew were going to get married, those who didn't knew they thought they were going to divorce, they didn't talk to each other, and they didn't even make eye contact. There was a long silence, and the atmosphere became more and more awkward.

"By the way," Wen Ning suddenly remembered something, turned her head and said, "I met Wan Siqi at the company yesterday, and she apologized to me, saying that she knew that the person who reported it was her roommate."

Gu Chixi was slightly startled, feeling the gaze from his side, and his expression was a little unnatural, "Huh? Then what?"

"Do you have anything to do with this?" Wen Ning stared at her face, not letting go of a slight expression.

Gu Chixi has always been accustomed to being cold, and her emotions and anger are invisible, but in front of Wen Ning, it is difficult for her to disguise, and her uncontrollable emotions are revealed and easily seen through.

There are relationships.

She didn't want Wen Ning to know that she was involved. After all, she promised to ignore it last time, so she said vaguely, "Why do you think so?"

"Just answer me if I have it." Wen Ning raised her chin, her tone a bit fierce.

"...Yes." Gu Chixi knew that he couldn't hide it, so he simply admitted that, thinking that Wen Ning was angry, she hurriedly grabbed her hand and rubbed soothingly, "What did Wan Siqi say?"

Her honest look made Wen Ning laugh.

It's almost like Mr. Gu who I saw in the conference room yesterday.

Wen Ning held back her laughter, forcibly straightened her face, and recounted what happened.

"Did you send the text message?" she asked, raising her eyebrows.

Gu Chixi lowered his eyes, put his thumb into her palm, circled and stroked the lines on it, and after a while, nodded and said, "I sent it to Wan Siqi using my virtual online account, I didn't expect to get it. It's just a reminder to her and try her luck. But I didn't expect her to crash..."

Having said that, she glanced at Wen Ning with a guilty conscience, and her tone became weaker.

"I promised you to ignore this matter, but I didn't do it. I broke my promise. I... still don't want to see you wronged. It's even more sad than I am wronged myself." looking at her.

Her facial features are cold and deep, revealing a sense of arrogance and estrangement, but her eyes are filled with infinite tenderness, and her eyes are full of affection.

Wen Ning's heart trembled, and her soul was captured by those deep black eyes. An intense current flowed through her limbs and bones in an instant. She felt a little dizzy, and her body felt soft.

The car suddenly fell into silence, filled with deep breaths and chaotic heartbeats.

Peach lips are close at hand.

Suddenly, Wen Ning turned her face away and said with a smile, "Childish."

"…"

"You don't need to fight for such a trivial matter." She said coldly, looking out the window, the sour smile on her face was reflected in the window glass, her eyelashes were trembling and her eyes were blinking fast.

Gu Chixi looked lost, clenched her hand and said, "Everything related to you is no small matter to me."

Wen Ning blinked and pursed her lips.

Although there is no direct causal relationship between the matter and Gu Chixi, she should say thank you for helping her. She opened and closed her lips, thanking Gu Chixi in her heart, but the words got stuck in her throat and couldn't get out.

After a long time, Wen Ning snorted lightly, and said without pain or itching, "It's your responsibility."

She raised her eyebrows slightly, raised her chin slightly, and her mouth was half pouted—the window glass showed clearly, and she looked like a deadly arrogant child.

Hearing this familiar tone, Gu Chixi couldn't help raising the corners of his lips, and said in a coquettish tone, "Yes, I am willing."

The little one still hasn't changed.

Her thumb slowly rubbed Wen Ning's palm, paused for a moment, carefully combed her five fingers, intertwined her hands, and hooked the little finger.

Wen Ning shrank her hand and wanted to take it back, but was fastened firmly.

"Let go!" She turned her head and stared.

Gu Chixi immediately let go.

-whispering sound.

cowardly died.

Also the boss.

Wen Ning sneered, feeling very good.

…

There are very few same-sex couples registered with the Civil Affairs Bureau, no appointment is required, and the process is very fast.

When taking the photo, the staff asked the two of them to get closer. Gu Chixi was afraid that Wen Ning would be awkward, so he tilted his head, but Wen Ning also cooperated so closely that their faces met unexpectedly.

Wen Ning: "…"

Gu Chixi: "..."

The two separated very calmly and tacitly.

After getting the marriage certificate, Wen Ning looked at the red notebook in her hand, and there was no hesitation in her heart, as if she had just completed a task.

The moment she walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, she was still in a trance.

So get married.

No floats, no weddings, no blessings.

The person around her is the person in the dream, but her heart is not the heart in the dream. The thing in her life that fills her with beautiful fantasies the most hastily passed, and she can't help but feel regretful.

She lowered her face and sighed, stuffing the documents into her bag indiscriminately.

Noticing Wen Ning's movements, Gu Chixi could not help clenching the red book in her hand, and her lips moved slightly. She probably knew what Wen Ning was thinking, but that was actually what she was thinking. She also wants a sacred and romantic wedding, blessings from relatives and friends, and Wen Ning's heart.

However, the two are currently only in a contractual relationship, and even getting a certificate is just a process. Those beautiful things can only be imagined.

She lost Ling Ning's heart seven years ago.

"Let's go." Wen Ning opened the car door and sat in.

Gu Chixi carefully put the marriage certificate away, got into the car, saw Wen Ning leaning against the back of the chair with her eyes closed, and thought about it: "Ning Ning, do you want to go to the hotel with me?"

"Can."

The car slowly drove towards Roland International.

I don't remember when it started, Gu Chixi fell in love with staying in a hotel, all kinds of suites, more comfortable and more secure than home - before she had no plans to buy a house and live in it for the time being.

A person lives wherever he lives, as long as he can stay away from his mother.

The hotel is very big, with several high and low buildings adjacent to each other. There is a VIP elevator in the small door on the side of the lobby, which is guarded by special personnel. Gu Chixi took Wen Ning in and went straight to the top floor.

The door opened, and outside was a cold, empty hall.

A typical British pastoral style, fresh and elegant floral decoration can be seen everywhere. The tones are mostly plain white and milk green, which are transparent and comfortable. There are several landscape oil paintings hanging on the wall, and there is an old-fashioned piano in the corner.

Gu Chixi wrapped the whole layer down.

Passing through the lobby, push open the sliding door, behind is the living room, on both sides are the master bedroom, secondary bedroom, cloakroom, bathroom, etc., and there are other functional rooms on the other end, which are not commonly used.

"Ning Ning, do you think it's okay?" After a brief introduction, Gu Chixi turned his inquiry to Wen Ning.

Wen Ning glanced around and felt that there was nothing new, just a normal big suite. When she was a child, she often stayed with her parents when she went out to play, but the design style here was very attractive to her, and it didn't look like a hotel.

Due to her work, she also often stays in hotels and is hardly "picky eater".

"Don't like it?"

Seeing her stunned, Gu Chixi thought she was dissatisfied, and thought for a moment: "Then let's live in Tianhe Bay first, and then go to the community near the company to see the house together when we have time."

"Just here, it's good," Wen Ning shook her head and stretched her waist. "You don't need to buy a house. You'll leave after a year anyway. It's a waste, and it saves me from sharing your property."

Although the two were contractually married, they had legal effect in the end. She had already taken so much money from others. If she split another sum during the divorce, she would feel embarrassed.

From now on, strictly abide by the terms of the "contract".

Gu Chixi was stunned, his eyes suddenly dimmed, he pulled the corner of his mouth, and changed the subject: "I have all the daily necessities ready, you can choose a room, you can come and live tonight."

"Tomorrow night, my class the day after tomorrow."

"Okay," Gu Chixi nodded, "then I'll go to Tianhe Bay with you."

Wen Ning: "…"

She pursed her lips, raised her eyebrows, looked away calmly, and pointed to the master bedroom on the left, "Do you live in this room?"

"Um."

"I live opposite." Wen Ning walked to the second bedroom on the right.

The single bedroom is huge, with sofas, tables, chairs, and balconies. There is a one-meter-eight double bed covered with brand-new lavender sheets and quilts. There is even a mobile phone data cable at the head of the bed. Wen Ning walked around the room, opened the closet, and there were a row of clothes that had not been removed.

She was stunned for a while, and she took one out and put it in front of her for gestures, which was almost appropriate.

Open the bottom drawer, full of complete sets of underwear.

The man knew her size.

Wen Ning looked down at herself, her cheeks were slightly red, and her ears were hot.

It is Gu Chixi's style to prepare so well overnight. She has always been very concerned about Wen Ning. In the past, Wen Ning thought that this was her own happiness, but now she only sighs when she thinks about it.

Looking at the room, at noon, the two ordered a meal and ate in the living room.

In the afternoon, Gu Chixi packed some luggage and went to Tianhe Bay with Wen Ning.

At two or three o'clock, thick dark clouds piled up in the sky, the light was dim, and a storm was about to fall.

Unlike Gu Chixi, who had prepared daily necessities overnight, Wen Ning prepared almost nothing. Fortunately, the first floor room was cleaned and it was fairly clean. She carried Gu Chixi's suitcase in, brought in a vacuum cleaner, and vacuumed the remaining ash. .

"You just live in this room, okay?" Wen Ning straightened her back and turned to look at Gu Chixi, "I have a backup towel and toothbrush, or you can buy it yourself later."

Gu Chixi stood at the door and looked to the next room. The door was open, and you could see that there were beds and traces of life inside.

She looked away, did not answer Wen Ning, but pointed to the next room, "Is there anyone else at home?"

Meeting her scrutiny eyes, Wen Ning choked for a few seconds and said, "It's for Xiaoyu." She was staring at her rather uncomfortable, and avoided a little, "She sometimes comes to play, here live."

Gu Chixi looked at her and said nothing.

The dark eyes contained the eternal ice, as if the storm was about to come. She almost didn't hide her emotions, she was silent for a moment, pressed down, and asked in a light voice: "Does she come often?"

"Three or four times a month..." Wen Ning lowered her face, a little guilty.

Since the last time the two met unexpectedly, the strong smell of fire and medicine in the confrontation set off, and she seemed to be inexplicably involved in the whirlpool, pulled by two invisible pressures at the same time, and it was very uncomfortable to be caught in the middle.

Blame this guy for being paranoid.

she thinks.

Gu Chixi lowered her eyes, took two steps forward, and stretched out her long fingers to hook her, "I'm married, you should sleep together."

"It's just a contract," Wen Ning shook off her hand, "Besides, who stipulated that once you get married, you can't sleep in separate rooms?"

"Lime-"

Gu Chixi chased after her hand.

Wen Ning put her hands behind her back and took two steps back. The man was unrelenting. She was annoyed for a while, and said coldly, "Keep pulling it down and go to sleep on the street."

There are only five rooms in this house, two upstairs are Wen Ning's bedroom, Wen Ning's parents' bedroom, three downstairs, a study, two guest rooms, one of which is for the occasional play. What Yu kept, there was only one vacant room left.

There is no choice.

Gu Chixi froze, with a complicated expression on his face.

In the past, every time they came to Wen Ning's house, they all slept in the same bed. From childhood to adulthood, there was no exception. Now she moved in as Wen Ning's wife, but she could only sleep in the guest room. Upstairs and downstairs, the distance is like a moat, and in the middle is a gap called "seven years".

She lowered her eyes and said nothing. She slowly retracted her hand hanging in the air, pushed the box to the closet, squatted down, and sorted her luggage silently.

There was only speechless embarrassment left in the room.

Wen Ning looked at her lonely and lonely back, her heart seemed to be pinched hard, soft and collapsed, not a taste, a little annoyed that she had said too much, but she was too embarrassed to take the initiative to apologize, so she froze for a while, Just remembered to get something.

She went out with the vacuum cleaner, and Gu Chixi's hand folded her clothes stopped, her eyes were a little sour.

After a while, Wen Ning came in again and handed a small string of keys to her. "Gold is for the courtyard door, and silver is for the emergency key for the living room door. The password is 150711. If there is a problem with the combination lock, use the emergency key to open the door."

Gu Chixi took the key and said nothing.

Wen Ning: "…"

-whispering sound.

Also got mad at her.

As for what.

childish!

"I've disinfected the wardrobe." Wen Ning said kindly, and glanced at the box secretly.

Clothes, perfumes, toiletries, computers, shoes... ordinary things, like travel.

Gu Chixi moved slowly and responded in a low voice: "Well."

"I dragged it."

"Um."

"Just cleaned it yesterday."

"Um."

"I'll get the sheets and duvet cover for you later, new ones."

"Um."

"…"

Wen Ning clicked her tongue, a little helpless, but she couldn't hold her face to apologize. After racking her brains, she finally started the topic: "Did you tell your mother about marriage?"

Gu Chixi frowned slightly, "Not yet."

"Should we meet her? If she asks, we..."

"No," Gu Chixi interrupted softly, "I can just show her the marriage certificate."

"Oh."

Both of them squatted on the ground, stomping awkwardly. Wen Ning couldn't think of anything to talk about, and was about to find an excuse to leave when Gu Chixi suddenly said, "I have a dinner tonight, and I'll be back at about eight or nine o'clock."

"...Oh." Wen Ning blinked, "Don't tell me, you can do whatever you want."

Gu Chixi pursed his lips.

A torrential rain fell, and it didn't stop until after nine o'clock at night.

The bedroom was lit with warm yellow lights. Wen Ning had taken a shower, and was chatting with He Yu on the sofa with her mobile phone in her arms. The air was a little cold after it had rained. She did not close the sliding glass door of the balcony, letting the humid breeze blow in.

While chatting happily, there was the sound of a car approaching outside, Wen Ning got up and looked out, and saw the familiar blue Bentley parked at the door, Gu Chixi got down from above, and it turned around and left.

She held her breath.

The courtyard door opened and closed, and then the door of the living room made a "beep" sound of the combination lock.

Wen Ning looked down at the time on the phone.

nine thirty.

The night was dark, the cold and white street lamps were desolate, the red brick house stood quietly in the darkness, a faint yellow light leaked from the window, and people sat by the window and concentrated.

She suddenly had a feeling of waiting for her family to return home late.

After Gu Chixi left in the afternoon, Wen Ning went to the mall under the heavy rain and bought some daily necessities according to the general preferences of the person. Although she knew that Gu Chixi usually didn't need to open things up, but she got married in a hurry and was unprepared for a while.

After that, they lived without interfering with each other like this.

Wen Ning sighed lightly, and lowered her head to reply to He Yu's message. She felt a little hot at the moment, she closed the sliding door, pulled up the curtain, and turned on the air conditioner.

— Tuk Tuk Tuk

The door was knocked.

Xu Shi was not used to having someone at home, so Wen Ning was startled, she froze in place, stared at the door for a long time before she reacted and went to open the door.

Gu Chixi stood outside, her cold white face was as smooth as jade under the light, and there was weariness in her eyebrows.

"What's wrong?" Wen Ning asked, looking over the pajamas and toiletries in her hand.

Gu Chixi looked a little embarrassed and said, "The toilet downstairs is too big, I'm not used to it, can I come upstairs to take a shower?"

"…"

What strange habit is this?

Obviously not before.

Wen Ning didn't think much about it. Taking a shower upstairs and downstairs is the same, so she nodded and said, "Yes, whatever."

Gu Chixi turned around and entered the bathroom next door.

The sound insulation of the room was acceptable. Wen Ning closed the door and continued chatting with He Yu while holding her mobile phone, only a faint sound of water splashing could be heard. Chatting and chatting, she lay down, her eyelids fighting a little.

— Tuk Tuk Tuk

Another knock on the door.

Wen Ning woke up instantly and got up to open the door.

"what happened again?"

"Nothing to do, I'll chat with you."

Gu Chixi was wearing a translucent nightdress with suspenders. Just after taking a shower, her cheeks were slightly pink, and her black and fluffy hair was draped softly behind her shoulders. The cold sense of alienation faded away, showing a bit of gentleness. soft.

Wen Ning stared at her intently, her throat slipped, and she pretended to be indifferent: "I don't want to talk."

"I'm scared alone."

"…"

So you usually stay alone in a hotel for a whole floor and you're not afraid? Wen Ning rolled her eyes in her heart.

"Okay?" Gu Chixi looked at her with pleading eyes.

Lemony eats this set the most.

Wen Ning's mind was buzzing, her heart softened uncontrollably, but she was unwilling to compromise completely and was tangled.
